Temperature Notification

Hmm, do you have libsensors3 installed? If not, please install that, and see if that fixes it. If so, I'll add a package dependency.

Also, is there any output from these commands:
  $ find /proc /sys 2>/dev/null | grep therm
  $ find /proc /sys 2>/dev/null | grep therm

The two commands you provided were the same and have a long list of output in /sys, but only the (empty) thermal_zone folder under /proc.

I installed libsensors3, but this did not solve the problem and sensors-detect was not installed with it.

I installed libsensors4, ran sensors-detect, inserted the 'coretemp' module and started module-init-tools. Still nothing under /proc/acpi/thermal_zone, so I'm not sure what the requirements are for showing temperature. Maybe my hardware does not support a temperature reading, although 'sensors' does give temperature output.

If you can point me to the place in /proc or /sys where your
temperature is located, I will gladly add support to Byobu for it.

Thanks,

I'm not sure where the temperature data is -- I'm looking for it now. I see from the man page that I can set a variable to point to the location. The output for reference was:

What does the content of the file I am looking for look like?

Enabling "CPU temp" in byobu returns nothing because there is nothing in the /proc/acpi... path.

I've installed libsensors4 and run "sensors-detect". Running "sensors" gives me a nice output of the temperature of each CPU, etc (coretemp-isa).

Perhaps try:
 * find /sys /proc -name "temperature" 2>/dev/null

Thanks. I found a file containing the temperature for each core:

/sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/temp1_input

contains "46000" and the temperature for core 0 is 46 according to "sensors".

So

$ cat /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.*/temp1_input

agrees with the output for all four cores from "sensors".

No idea how to parse/include this in byobu though :)
